Kernel data inpage error

I have a Dell Inspiron M731R. Last night when I tried to start it up all I got was the spinning thing. Finally got message that it was preparing automatic repair but after a little while it became a black screen. I've read other members posts but I can't get to where I can find my dump files or run the check disc because I can't get pass the black screen. How do I get to where I can enter a command? Or is it beyond hope? I am technology challenged, pretty much clueless. Thanks for any suggestions.

If this is a W8 or W10 system you may want to run the Dell diagnostics from the boot menu (by tapping the F12 key rapidly as the system first boots up)

My browser caused a flood of traffic, sio my IP address was banned. Hope to fix it soon. Will get back to posting as soon as Im able.
